Wow they are already starting to approve some of the cases received on Nov. 16 and Nov. 17 too!
 
Kind of disappointed to see that the case number right after mine got approved. LUCKY. Whoever is holding the box with my case in it please work faster!!! 

113 days, but who's counting?
I assumed the worst, thinking I'd be waiting till the end of the year for this, or that my case fell behind a shelf.
But today my case was finally approved!! (technically on February 7th) 
It was already a great day, I spent it at a secluded beach near Da Nang, Vietnam, with my fiancée. And then, it was an even better end to the day, by checking my phone and *boom* I get the notification with her sitting right by my side <3 
 
All I can say is just hold tight, good news is on the way for others waiting.
 
I have a really good feeling Jim's case will be approved this week 

Congrats!! Happy you got apprroved too.
 
Can you double check the dates on your timeline? It says your Noa1 is Nov. 22 and received date is 10/28?

Have a fun vacation, Jim!!  You'll come back with very good news I'm sure!

And fishe23a as well!!! Lots of good news today! ?

I'm sitting in the Narita airport waiting for boarding to Manila in just over an hour. I updated my app on my phone and it notified me our case is approved!!!!I am just a few hours away from seeing my fiancée again. I was going to message her but I will just tell her in person.

OMG! My fiance and I got approved!!!  
 
Thank you to all the people on Visa Journey that helped answer our questions and making this wait more tolerable with your humor and kindness!  It helped knowing there are people out there going through the same journey, and understand you.

Special thanks to @JimJesDuma for starting this November 2016 thread.  And huge thanks to @geowrian for your efforts everyday posting those updates.  It gave me something to look forward to reading every night I got home from work!

Good luck to everyone waiting and for everyone in the future!

Here's a little picture of my fiance and I at a friends wedding.  Soon it will be our wedding!
She's the Canadian citizen Kimchi/Korean and I'm the US citizen Filipino/Lumpia  
 
 

Hi Jim,
 
Yes! I've been a lurker ever since I saw this thread. Thank you for starting it, it kept me sane through all that wait. I hope you guys get your approval soon! Cheers!  

I sure hope so. Hope you are approved this week as well.
It's only Tuesday here so still 3 more days.
Jim
